  • Looking through the original poster’s feed and he seems really dead set on giving this animated organic looking eyes and a movable face? Or at least like a human mask of some kind???

    ( Very niche rant about design principles that probably has nothing to do with the guy or subject he’s posting about because I only spent like 5min looking into this):

    spoiler

    Like, my guy, and all the other really hyperfixated super-anthro robot people, check this out:

    We got it already. Figured this out decades ago. Those little robot cat waiters they got at restaurants here and there just do that and it’s perfect.

    Boggles me still how someone can be smart enough for an engineering degree and still not know how to transfer goal-based design into aesthetics. Robots look better by making them look good as robots, not by making them look good as people. Then they just look cheap and fake.

    If they ever make a robo butler (or whatever) that becomes commercially successful it’s not going to have a human face, it’s just going to be a screen with ASCII animations or something similar.

    It’s a robot. Stop wasting ting time fighting the grain and work with its strengths. Holy moly.


  • Yeah we’re sludge merchants. We’re grime-pilled slop heads. If that coffee doesn’t taste like, share the same color as, or flow as slow as 20 year old motor oil I don’t want it.

    I want ground beans at the bottom of the cup black as night. I want to cough like I’m drowning after the first sip. If I look like a complete person aftwards: it’s not bad enough. There better be asphalt and rubber cutting the grounds they use.

    That’s real America right there. None of this hands-in-the-ass drinking a pumpkin bullshit. Wake up thirsty, start your day ruined. If you can’t work through the IBS you don’t want it enough.
